Chicago restaurant choices?

Recommended Posts

I'm going to Chicago for a few days next week, and I'm looking for a great restaurant. Of course, the Windy City has a bunch.

My first choice was one with a fabulous view, possibly The Signature Room at the 95th:

Then, I thought, my guy is a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy and he's never been to Harry Caray's Italian Steakhouse:

It doesn't have the view, but it has been named one of Chicago's best steakhouses, and I know the sports theme is a plus. I've been there, but many years ago.

Then again, one of my very favorite restaurants is Rosebud on Rush (Italian):

And we missed out going there last year when we were in Chicago.

I'm charged with deciding and then making the reservations.

What do you think? Any other suggestions?

If it doesn't have a great view, it must have great food. It can be expensive, but not outrageous, like Trump's restaurant there.

I go to Chicago about every other week:

Shaw's Crabhouse

The Chicago Firehouse

Harry Caray's

Kinzie Chophouse

Keefer's

Prosecco

312 Chicago

Gibson's

Morton's

Gene & Georgetti's

Fado Irish Pub (for a pint)

Timothy O'Tooles (for bar food, cheap beer and lots of TVs)

Rosebud's (is meh, OK)

Ditka's is decent if you like pork chops served rare

Jean and Geogetti's is by FAR the best steakhouse in Chicago.

Harry Cary's and Ditka's are very good. But, they get the reputation only because of the sports connection with their name.

That's utter nonsense. Haray Caray's is probably the best steakhouse I've ever been to. The location is mediocre, but the food is certifiable, and it's got nothing to do with the name attached to it.

Gene & Geogetti's? Are you serious? They only have FOUR cuts of steak! They have more variety at Outback!

Seriously Harry Caray's.

So, suggestions for a good (not over the top pricey) restaurant with a great view?

I go with clients for the food and drink, so I can't help you with the view criteria. However, any of the selections I mentioned should please your pallet. They all have websites but I am too busy to search and insert.

Oh, thanks for the list. I definitely will go check them all out on the web myself.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
